Damian of Alexandria was an early Christian martyr and soldier. Historical records suggest he lived during a period when he suffered for his faith, possibly in either Roman Africa or Alexandria, Egypt. His identity in historical codices has been subject to confusion, as he was previously conflated with another martyr whose remains were discovered in the catacomb of Callixtus. Although he was once listed in the Roman Martyrology for February 12, he was removed during the 2004 revision of that text.
